Concept: Fatigue As Provisions

Is it possible to add a new gauge to the GUI?

a provisions meter?

perhaps it could be a slide out hand written on a piece of paper... so many lbs of meat, so many cans of vegetables, so many gallons of fresh drinking water, so many dozen fresh eggs, such and such loafs of bread etc etc and at the end "Estimate 40 days worth of provisions remaining"

every 24 hours the numbers on the slide out would decrease at a fixed rate providing a boat with 60 days of provisions - therby requiring a refit or an end patrol at 60 days for example.

when the slide out reaches to 10 days of provisions the text turns red or goes to All caps underlined and says

" ESTIMATE APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK PROVISIONS REMAINING"

somehow tie it to oxygen level? running out of provisions is the same as running out of oxygen?

end mission screen with "your crew has starved to death"
